We met during our freshman year of high school while riding the bus. After seeing each other every day after school, we ended up dating for a short period of time. We remained friends all throughout high school and the first half of college. After not staying in touch for a couple years, I messaged Daren on his birthday and we began talking again and realized how much we missed each other. We went on a date to Walnut Grill, and have been inseparable ever since!

While Daren was home on holiday block leave, we were leaving to go out on a date to Robinson. He took a turn to go in a direction that was opposite of Robinson, which I thought was weird but he said he wanted to get gas so I didn't question it too much. However, when he turned into Weir High School's parking lot, I began to get a little curious. He parked the car and asked me to get out. Taking me to the first place and exact spot that we ever met and asking to spend forever together quickly turned into one of the best days of my life!
